Carlito has speed to burn, id be more concerned about his jumping, not that I fancy him to win, but he has to be considered a danger due to his undoubted class, more than can be said of King Of The Night who has a line through him on this punters racecard.
Amazing the amount of money being shovelled on Irish raider Heaney in Cheltenham's 3.20- currently around 7/2. He's been raised 15lbs for his last two wins. However, prior to that, fellow Irish raider Action Master gave him 14lbs and a six length beating when they were 4th and 7th respectively behind Carlingford Lough in a valuable handicap hurdle at Galway. Today, Heaney gives him 2lb. By my calculation, Action Master has about 22lbs in hand of the favourite and is trading at 33/1 on Betfair. Neither may win of course but I'm having a little each way on Brian Cooper's mount.
The Master of Glesga speaks, and the markets listen as per the script, King Of The Night, 9/2 out to 7/1, just shows you how strong my opinion is in this game. I reckon the Fry yard could hardly believe their luck when they seen how short they could lay this beast today and they will duly fill their boots im sure.
Only Betfair is offering 7/1- the rest as low as 4/1. KIng Of The Night has won first time out in the last three years and will destroy this motley crew. The Tamerlo Master has spoken!
